Beat the Lotto + Q&A
Bray, Co. Wicklow
26 July 2025
When downtrodden 1980s Ireland inaugurated a National Lottery, the people began to dream. For Cork based mathematician Stefan Klincewicz, it was an obsession.

Spotting a flaw in the system, he recruited a ragtag team of chancers, and masterminded an audacious plan to fix the draw and win the millions.

The heist became public knowledge, and in a race against time, the lottery did everything they could to try and stop the steal, dividing the nation on a very public caper.

This film will be followed by a Q&A with the director Ross Whitaker.
